Override default synthetic webdriver to accept untrusted certificate

We are trying to write a python synthetic script to monitor our websites (https://docs.appdynamics.com/appd/4.5.x/en/end-user-monitoring/browser-monitoring/browser-synthetic-....

Some scripts needed to access our websites require downloading JS scripts from our internal hosts with untrusted certificates (we use internal CA). How can I initialize my own driver with my own capabilities?

I.E.

caps = webdriver.DesiredCapabilities.CHROME.copy()
caps['acceptInsecureCerts'] = True
driver = webdriver.Chrome(desired_capabilities=caps)

gets overrided by

WARNING: A Driver object is created automatically and is available as a local variable called `driver`.
Ignoring call to `Chrome` on line 22 by returning `driver` reference.

@David.Machacek : If the issue is not already resolved it's best if you create a Support ticket for end to end review of agent setup.

How do I submit a Support ticket? An FAQ
